Rantings of a Rabid Knitter

madonnaearth asked me “Any other hobbies you may do. Have you ever sewn?” Good question. This week, I talk about my sewing adventures. How about you?  Do you sew?  Do you like to sew?  Do you hate sewing? website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

Sorry for the late show this week.  Work has been very busy.  There is an important thing going on this week.  I had to buy clothes so that I could look professional.  I am rather particular about the types of clothes that I wear at work.  There is a very good reason for that. What do you think?  Has anything like this happened to you? website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I have a Damsel curled up around my feet.  I tell you why this week. I want to say a big thank you to knitting2relax, valeria, DebInAtlanta, and madonnaearth for helping me out with my story block this week. I was beginning to sweat when DebInAtlanta asked if the animals had done anything interesting lately. If you have any questions,  comments, or a topic you want me to talk about, let me know. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

Today, I answer some questions I received about various fiber related topics. I also propose a new direction for the fiber shows. There are so many knitting techniques out there that I have dappled in.  Would you be interested in learning more about them? The list I have so far is: Intarsia Fair Isle Entralac Cables Lace Swiss Darning Twined Double Gansey Mosaic Shadow If there is something missing, and I am sure there is, let me know.  It will be added to the list. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

This week is a rambling discussion of what has been going on since and due to the car accident.  No worries.  I am not hurt just annoyed, frustrated, and flabbergasted at whole thing. Next week is suppose to be a fiber show…  What fiber is there left to talk about?  Any ideas or suggestions would help. If not, we may face starting all over again with cotton. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I finish the story this week by explaining the series of events that caused me to leave the church.  It is I think a fairly common tale of why things go wrong. In the years since then similar tales have been told by many in many different churches. Please let me know what you thought. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I continue the story I started last week.  Don’t really want to say much and give the story away. Please, let me know what you think.  Was I a complete idiot? website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

In podcast KnitWit 24: Culture Shock part 3, I mention in passing my joining a born again Christian cult. My friend, Arlene, asked how in the world did happen. In this weeks show, I talk about series of events that lead to my decision. I concentrate on the year before. To comment, you can reach me in several different ways. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

This week I talk about how I got the poison ivy in an uncomfortable place. Also I continue the discussion of different fibers. This week it is canine. Dog makes a very nice yarn. It also knits very nice garments being both water and dirt repellent. These are a couple of books that I have found useful: Putting on the Dog by Carol Kroll Knitting With Dog Hair by Kendall Crolius If you have any experience you would like to share or books to recommend please contact me. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

I had to do a writing sample for a class work is sending me to. The assignment was to write a response to one of two statements. I had a problem with a phrase used in one of the questions. It makes no sense to me. I discuss the phrase and why it bothers me so much. What do you think? website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

This is a way off topic rant. I am mad. Furious about something that happened miles away. Something that I can’t do a damn thing about. Someone hurt one of the most precious person to me. What was done would piss me off if it was a stranger. To have it happen to someone I love, has put me in a real tizzy. Since I am having problems seeing past my being upset, I talk about it. I hope you don’t mind. I would appreciate any advice on dealing with this. website: autumnbreezedesigns.com email: carry.autumnbreeze@gmail.com ravelry: autumnbreeze ravelry forum: KnitWit:Rantings of a Rabid Knitter Forum Thanks.

This week is a follow up on the llama episode (121). I talk about preparing and spinning alpaca.  Alpaca is slightly finer than llama but the process is the same. I end with my interpretation of a myth. I hope you enjoy.
